Plugged In, Maureen McHugh & L. Timmel Duchamp

A slim volume containing just two stories, this book was released in limited edition by Aqueduct Press at WisCon 32 in 2008, where both Maureen McHugh and L. Timmel Duchamp were Guests of Honour (and I am extremely grateful to my WisCon-going friends for snagging a copy for me).

Both stories are solid science-fictional offerings dealing with the interaction of humans and technology; McHugh tackles the complexities of contact with an evolving AI, while Duchamp looks at the effects of advances in reproductive technologies on gender role and identity. Both are worth reading.
